Anyanwu is going to be on £300k at Montpellier, which is a bit nuts

It's a big issue - basically will be those on central contracts and everyone else will be way below the quality.It's precisely the kind of move England should be very worried about. Retaining regulars should be easy enough.
But we really don't want next generation players who aren't quite there yet, but heading towards the fringes deciding to cash in. (Especially 12s!)
A new environment should help develop them as players, but I don't think J Willis will be the last to decide that the bank balance and lifestyle in peak years is more important than anything else.
Jamie Blamire to Tigers sounds like a done deal potentially
We were always going to lose a back row imo tbh so Wev isn't that surprising. Lennox getting offered that kind of money is also fine.We will see how he does in a functioning pack
Anyway looks like Will Evan's off to France some very interesting players leaving in their prime or near quins it seems
I mean I wouldn't say it's fine, it's understandable but very big losses to replaceWe were always going to lose a back row imo tbh so Wev isn't that surprising. Lennox getting offered that kind of money is also fine.
Jibulu is a worry though
Idk I think people are being dramatic. Ultimatly Wev is great but isn't nailed on to start, and Kenningham will be around for a while in that shirt. Lots of Quins fans didn't even rate Lennox until this year and has had 6ish good games, if that. Northmore can play 12 (although better at 13) and Bradley and Kerr both look super promising in the centreI mean I wouldn't say it's fine, it's understandable but very big losses to replace
Anyanwu having 6 good games on his first season as first choice after round 6, he looked good before but was behind Esterhuizen.Idk I think people are being dramatic.

We won't replace Wev and it sounds like we're chasing an expensive 12 - provided we do that, we'll be fine on both fronts
